<h1 style="text-align: center;">why this is NASCAR's Golden Age</h1>
&nbsp;
1] YES, NASCAR attendance is down, some of the best news yet !!
Does it hurt YOU that the tracks have to actually compete for your business, that they are offering promo packages and discounted ticket prices that are quite likely the most reasonable of any major professional sporting event today?
At Talladega this upcoming weekend they have a two day ticket offer (CUP and NATIONWIDE races) albeit it is sitting on the Allison backstretch for a mere $49.00 AND kids 12 and under get in for FREE, so for &lt; $100, Mom, Dad and little Johnny and little Suzy can see 2 full days of RACING entertainment.
If your so inclined you can also take advantage of FREE camping spots, FREE parking and you can bring your own food and beverages into the facility.
Take that same $100 to any other major league sporting event and see how far it gets you. Now try to bring in your own snacks and beverages into the stadium and see how far you get.
Last weekends race at Richmond had a $45 ticket offer as well as $60 ticket that included rental of "Fanvision" audio/video scanner. A pretty sweet deal for a Saturday night short track showdown under the lights featuring the best stock car drivers in the world!
As @Thomas Gronstal stated in his comment previously, the Bristol race was 1 the people waited in line for YEARS for a CHANCE to buy a ticket, today you can buy tickets on their website right now starting at $80 for the Aug classic and I would wager that anyone that attended the spring race this year had opportunities to buy tickets likely well BELOW face value if they wanted to chance dealing with a ticket scalper
It won't bother me 1 bit that the Frances ISC or Smiths Speedway corp will make a few million less in revenue than in years past.
The fact that the traffic getting in and out of the venues is better, the lineups at the concessions and washrooms are shorter and the best thing of all is that i am not sardine can packed into a seat with no room to move about are only more benefits that lower attendance brings.
So to all those "NASCAR fans" who are NOT attending, Thanks and please continue to stay away!
